Crocodile Cries
What do you do when they burn your loyalty?
What do you do when they kill your pride?
Straight faces but inside they are laughing, laughing as they turn their knives.
What do you do when the choice is set out?
The love of your life or your family pride?
What do you do when they manipulate those feelings deep, oh so deep inside?
You pull out your blade and cut the ties they have on you. You walk away never again to look in their eyes. They tried to stop you from having your chosen life. Make yourself deaf to their crocodile cries.
